We're still behind your fellow Americans on that one, not quite at the tea party just yet.
Also you should know, your President is a black man. Does that frighten you? Seems so.
The Tea Party is an informal gathering of normal folk who think that politics and politicians have become disconnected from the hopes, needs and aspirations of the middle/working classes. I think, the UK needs a good dose of Tea Partyism.
Obama black? Why so? If he was 30% black, would he still be black? 20%? 10%? What level of blackness makes one black in your view? Please do tell - an exact percentage please, +/- 1%. And why does blackness always trump whiteness?

In terms of electing a Tory prime minister, yes. Perhaps you have not seen how polarized UK politics is (and in some respects, always has been).
